The Leafs Blow Final By Momma Gouche

The Toronto Maple Leafs did not look impressive in their final exhibition game against the Detroit Red Wings Friday night. The Wings took over the game towards the end of the second period and scored 3 power play goals, to defeat the Leafs 5-2. Nazem Kadri and Joffrey Lupul scored the two goals for Toronto and both look like they are ready for the season; which begins October first. Hopefully, Lupul, who has a history of injuries, will remain healthy for the better part of the season. Some, far seeing, aficionados have predicted the Leafs will end up in 5th spot, but I can’t see that far ahead myself. I will be content with a playoff spot.
